Give

Everybody's reaching for something
Everyday pulling and tugging
Always wanting a little more
Holding on to hurt like an anchor
Treating those we love like strangers
Taking names and keeping score

We all know what we're really after
But somewhere along the road
We got it backwards

If you want to get love then give it
If you want to feel some forgiveness
Then you've gotta let go and do some forgiving of your own
If you want a friend then be one
A little bit of kindness shows up
You'll be surprised at how much finds its way back home
It don't matter what it is
If you want it, give

I've been downright stubborn
At one time or another
Found it's easier to bend
I've had a shoulder to lean on
Been the one who got to be strong
And peace was waiting at both ends

I've felt that power
I've seen what it can do, yeah

If you want to get love then give it
If you want to feel some forgiveness
Then you've gotta let go and do some forgiving of your own
If you want a friend then be one
A little bit of kindness shows up
You'll be surprised at how much finds its way back home
It don't matter what it is
If you want it, give

Your love away
Give yourself away

If you want to get love then give it
If you want to feel some forgiveness
Then you've gotta let go and do some forgiving of your own
If you want a friend then be one
A little bit of kindness shows up
You'll be surprised at how much finds its way back home
It don't matter what it is
If you want it, give

If you want to get love then give it
If you want to feel some forgiveness
If you want to get love then give it
(Give it all, give it all away)
If you want to feel some forgiveness
